The Advantage Pro was the top-of-the-line model of the first generation of the line of Contoured line of keyboards from Kinesis. Its sleek modern appearance was the result of a double coating of protective clear gloss on top of a metallic silver coating. 'Under the hood' it featured a second memory chip which permitted longer macros and a hidden memory locking switch to prevent accidental or unauthorized programming changes. An option to bundle the Single Action Footswitch accessory at a discounted price was also available.

However, as with all technology, as new operating systems arrived it was found that there were a potential issues with USB 3.0 on Windows 7/8/10 and the venerable Advantage PRO Contoured Keyboard was retired. It was succeed by the second generation Advantage2 Contoured Keyboard and the powerful fully separated Advantage360 and Advantage360 PRO Contoured Keyboards.

The CLEAVE Keyboard features the Truly Ergonomic split design to achieve a natural typing position. This non-traditional and slightly separated fixed-splay key layout aids in achieving a neutral wrist alignment by orienting the keys closer to the natural inward angle of the forearms and hands when using the keyboard.

Unlike traditional keyboards where the rows are offset horizontally, the CLEAVE features a columnar layout, with each column adjusted vertically to optimize key positioning by matching the length and reach of each finger, with the keycaps of each row being individually sculpted to optimize finger contact. The symmetrical layout also encourages a natural ergonomic central positioning of the keyboard.

In order to reduce the strain on the weaker pinky fingers, the most commonly used keys like Backspace, Delete, Shift, and Enter, are positioned centrally to be activated using the index fingers and thumbs. This also reduces awkward reaches that can reduce typing speed.

The CLEAVE is also the first keyboard to incorporate Optical Infrared Mechanical Switches and features a minimalist, almost flat design. Rather than keys being recessed into a housing, it features a base that houses the PCB, with the keys rising above the machined aluminum housing. The integrated self-skinned polyurethane palm supports are easily cleaned and help to reduce wrist extension while providing a cushioned rest for the palms.

The CLEAVE Keyboard is first and foremost an ergonomically-focused high-performance keyboard. However, the compact footprint achieved with the modified key layout and elimination of the numeric keypad also results in an overall width of just 13.6", reducing the reach for a mouse on the right by several inches and significantly lowering the risk of shoulder issues arising from overreach. This combination of high performance mechanical keyswitches, advanced ergonomic layout, quality structural design, and compact dimensions make this keyboard stand out from the crowd.

Simply push, pull, tilt or twist the SpaceExplorer's controller cap to simultaneously pan, zoom and rotate 3D objects and environments. SpaceExplorer features an array of easy-to-reach function keys labeled and pre-programmed with commands from leading design applications. Keys automatically map when moving between applications for unified navigation.

Using SpaceExplorer together with a mouse engages both hands in a natural, intuitive work style. One hand controls the mouse to edit or select menu items while the other hand controls the SpaceExplorer, positioning a model, then rotating, panning and zooming in one single, fluid motion.

The SpaceExplorer button array includes two numbered buttons for programmability of favorite application commands, plus keys for Speed, Views, 2D only, Fit, Control Panel and keyboard modifiers. This facilitates mastering of supported 3D application without having to leave the device to reach for the keyboard.
